May i suggest that we open a new FotF thread once the new version (or as i call it DF2012: Pre-apocalypse-party) is rolled out?

[Footkerchief]

How does the evil rain interact with the Adventure Mode character?

It won't be a Fort Mode-only feature, so it'll interact with Adv Mode creatures the same way.  Did you have a more specific question?

does bloodstorm cause unhappy thoughts?
like "urist mcSadguy has been unhappy lately. he has been caught by a bloodfall lately"

Anatoli asked this on the last page, although there's no answer yet.

Yeah, this thread's getting long in the tooth anyway.

New devlog! Apparently material based mandates are on hold for some reason.

Probably because they are broken with all new things that Toady implemented. I just hope it will be back earlier than year or two. I do not like when things are "fixed" by turning them off (*cough* contamination spread *cough*).

Mayor Ezum Lolomobok has issued a mandate for gloom horror mist dust thrones! (3)

[Monkeyfacedprickleback]

to be fair material mandates are already pretty bugged. We get nobles begging for licorice chairs and buzzard teeth scepters. I can only assume that the randomly generated metals are screwing with it even more. Hopefully there will be something to eplace it though. Like  demanding coloured objects. Like saying "blue/light blue/ dark blue/ cabinet (3)"
in this case you'd have to make the cabinet out of Cobalite/ Kimberite/ microline.

Though I do wonder how long it'll be till it comes out. While I'm willing to wait a month or two, With only 20 or so miscellaneous issues, It could come out before feb. Mind you I'm making the assumption that misc issues are the last thing toady does. and you know what they say about what happens when you Assume something.

There are still sponsorship animals, optimization and map mantenaince stuff to be done after these miscellaneous stuff. Toady thinks it will take a week for each one of them.

[Monkeyfacedprickleback]

See I just made a pun out of myself.

[MrWiggles]

From the End of the Month Report, and a Dev Post not to long ago, we're still on track for Jan. 15.

The Animals, Map Maint. and optimization could about a week each, but it doesnt mean that each will will take a week each.

[Kogut]

probably because of the randomized materials he was thinking of implementing.

And justice is now required.

Justice isn't required, you can still not act on crimes committed.

Toady One I'm moving into a part of the miscellaneous issues list where the really random stuff from the last nine months has piled up (via email conversations, future of the fortress etc.). So today I fixed an issue with projectiles not moving when you become an adventurer in the arena mode, fixed a rare forgotten beast crash which has undoubtedly scuttled various fortresses in the currently released version, made the legacy mouse work again, and added quite a lot of information to the historical figure XML dump.

So close...

I just had a weird dream about a new version of DF while I was napping... I don't remember much of it, but Toady was saying (in some strange, dreamt-up version of a devlog) that he'd just squashed another couple of bugs.
One was where the creatures in the underground caverns/catacombs beneath a city could hear the humans above talking, and another where his test adventurer went to a city, got two town guards to escort him to where the monsters were coming out from the catacombs, and one of the two was wearing sunglasses, which was apparently a bug.
There was more to it than that, but... Yeaaah.

Even RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY ! Can you believe that ? Never had such awful neighbors... I think I'm going to go upstairs and eat one or two of them to get the message across.

Pretty awesome dream. Actually, does this forum have a thread where DF dreams are shared? I'd really enjoy reading one.
